OpenOffice Importer

This is a very simple importer of OpenOffice documents.

Motivation

Squeak is the new media. To be the new media Squeak has to give us the option to convert a lot already created documents.

OpenOffice is an open source, multiplatform office package and its format is well specified and it's based on XML and Zip (see http://xml.openoffice.org). OpenOffice includes a lot of good job to handle propietary (example: M$ Office) formats so, importing OO format, we'll able to import really a lot of content.
